V1 Companion

September 13, 2024

***V3.17 - Provides full support for latest V1 Gen2 firmware V4.1035 features*** • V1 Companion is the only iOS app supporting the V1 Gen2's newest firmware (4.1027+) capabilities for dynamic volume control. This feature provides the most quiet ride of any iOS app when dealing with false alerts. Firmware 4.1035 adds new functionality, further enabling control over an alert's audio, bringing to reality the full vision of what 'dynamic volume control' was intended to be. Once you try this new version, you will be hooked on how quiet the detector is on false alerts, yet quickly responds to real threats. No annoying initial 'beeps' on falses, and no more missing the initial beep on real alerts! • V3.0 introduced one of the most intelligent 'location based lockout systems' for any iOS app called SpotLocks™. V3.17 Updates: • Full support for the new V1 Gen2 4.1035 firmware: • Ability to set 'Startup Sequence' ON/OFF from the app. • Ability to set 'Resting Display' ON/OFF from the app. • Ability to set 'BSM Plus' ON/OFF from the app. • Supports firmware's ability to restart the detector audio when using the app's 'dynamic vol control' feature. Now, when the app unmutes a signal, you will not miss the initial audio 'beep.' • Other bug fixes & optimizations. Other recent updates: • First major update to "SpotLocks" system (location based lockouts) since its release. • Improved "Junk" Ka reporting accuracy in history log. • Improved GPS Cooldown/Warmup functionality under certain conditions. • New 'Ka Sensitivity' setting. Select from Full, Original, or Relaxed sensitivity. • 'GPS Cooldown' added to 'GPS Warmup' feature. • New robust iCloud 'Map' data backup functionality: SpotLocks™ feature the following: • Automatic, intelligent, location based learning / unlearning of potential false alerts (you have the ability to turn this feature on or off). • Discrete signal locking™ - helps prevent locking out real police radar in close frequency range to the SpotLock™ frequency. • Frequency drift compensation™ - helps compensate for changes of the location's frequency drifting up and down over time at the saved location. • BSM guard™ - helps to keep non-stationary vehicle BSM/CAS signals from polluting the SpotLock™ stationary location database. • Continuous location tuning - Whether a SpotLock™ is actively locked or learning, the SpotLock™ system will continue to learn and tune itself over time to better handle future encounters. • Manual creation/deletion of SpotLocks™ - Manually create/delete SpotLocks™ by easily tapping a graphical 'lock' image on your phone screen if desired. • The SpotLocks™ system is optimized separately for each of the V1 Gen1 and V1 Gen2 platforms. • SpotLocks™ take advantage of the advanced muting ability of the V1 Gen2, so all SpotLocks™ are quiet from the onset, with no annoying initial 'blip' of audio. What others are saying: "V1 Companion Wow! ...so far it works so well and is so quiet that I was thinking the V1G2 was faulty!! It wasn't until the drive summary popped up that I realized it was obviously working hard in the background to keep my sanity intact from all of the weak K band sources." - D "It’s by far the best V1 app I’ve tried." "It’s frequently updated with new and advanced features." - IA "First drive today with V1 Companion and I am HAPPY!... The Ghost and BSM filtering works nicely!" - NCT "This app is my go-to now because of its simplicity. It’s what I’m looking for to just quiet down the V1 without all the technical advanced features in other apps that seems overwhelming to use." -RV "This release has really been a game changer for me… EXACTLY what I needed for my OCD using the V1 in my CX5." - C "This app transforms my V1G2 from unusable in city to works really good." - JB "[Other apps’] random beeps are a deal breaker. [They are] only marginally better than the gen1 with annoying weak notifications. The [V1] Companion rocks at killing unnecessary noise!" - GH

***V3.0 IS A MAJOR UPDATE - Full support for latest V1 Gen2 firmware V4.1031*** V3.0 introduced one of the most intelligent 'location based lockout systems' for any iOS app called SpotLocks™. In addition, V1 Companion is the only iOS app supporting the V1 Gen2's newest firmware (4.1027+) capabilities for dynamic volume control. These features provide the most quiet ride of any iOS app when dealing with false alerts. SpotLocks™ feature the following: • Automatic, intelligent, location based learning / unlearning of potential false alerts (you have the ability to turn this feature on or off). • Discrete signal locking™ - helps prevent locking out real police radar in close frequency range to the SpotLock™ frequency. • Frequency drift compensation™ - helps compensate for changes of the location's frequency drifting up and down over time at the saved location. • BSM guard™ - helps to keep non-stationary vehicle BSM/CAS signals from polluting the SpotLock™ stationary location database. • Continuous location tuning - Whether a SpotLock™ is actively locked or learning, the SpotLock™ system will continue to learn and tune itself over time to better handle future encounters. • Manual creation/deletion of SpotLocks™ - Manually create/delete SpotLocks™ by easily tapping a graphical 'lock' image on your phone screen if desired. • The SpotLocks™ system is optimized separately for each of the V1Gen1 and V1Gen2 platforms. • SpotLocks™ take advantage of the advanced muting ability of the V1Gen2, so all SpotLocks™ are quiet from the onset, with no annoying initial 'blip' of audio. ***V3.08 - Added Full support for V1 Gen2 firmware V4.1031*** • V1 Gen2 - Added ability to toggle ON/OFF Valentine One "Ka Always Radar Priority" firmware setting (Accessed by tapping the V1 Settings "Gear" on the main screen and also in the main "Settings" screen). • V1 Gen2 - Added ability to toggle ON/OFF Valentine One "Fast Laser Detection" firmware setting (Accessed by tapping the V1 Settings "Gear" on the main screen). • V1 Gen2 - Supports new firmware feature using ESP connection to unmute alerts that were muted by V1 algorithms. • Added rear laser detection to the main display when a laser alert occurs from the rear (previously showed front for all). • Compiled with Xcode 15 (Full support for iOS 17). • Compiled with latest Valentine One ESP Library2 v2.0.3 (Full support for new firmware 4.1031). • Misc. optimizations and bug fixes carried over from other companion apps.
